Answer / kchik
Main difference is:
Threads share the resources and address space of the process
spawning the threads.
Processes run in independent address spaces and have their
own resources between the parent and child processes.
Other differences:
Threads can communicate between threads directly.
Processes require user mode switches and full context switch.

Answer / m.suganya
threads are more efficient when compared to process. threads can finish a process fastly compared to the time taken by the process as a thread can create two or more threads and these threads cn share their resources among them..
hence the most important difference between thread and process is their efficiency and their ability to share their resources......
